Ohh I am not mad I was just asking and yes I have all of them symptoms. And they said the cyst is inside my spleen. The surgeon yesterday is new one and she told me that she hasn't even seen my CT scan yet but she talked to me and pushed on me and she told me that she would be able to look at the cyst and know if it is cancer are not which makes no sense to me. When it was found 7 years ago it was by accident and at a different hospital and they stright looked at me and told me I had cancer but they hadn't done any test either they just found it . So here I am 7 years later and it's bigger and gives me all kinds of problems and I still can't get it out are get any answers. The hospital is a teaching hospital but If you are not in the hospital then you are just seeing doctors outside the hospital like the surgeon isn't in the hospital but she does due surgery there

@renesbaby19 I’ve been doing some more reading on Splenic cysts and gathering it’s rare that they are cancerous. But they do grow over time, creating all of the uncomfortable symptoms you’re having. However, there several types and classifications of the cysts so it can take time to correctly diagnose and decide the course of action.
I can certainly understand how frustrating this is when you’re feeling so ill and not getting any relief.

CT scans, MRIs and ultrasound are means of diagnosing the cysts by size, margins, location, shape and density. So let your surgeon have time to evaluate the CT scan and your records. Since she’s a new surgeon for you, it will actually be a second opinion and perhaps she can shed some new light on what treatment will be available for you.

Do you have a follow up appointment with your new doctor?
